Fig  13                                        NOTE  before starting the cutting process the V100 vise jaw key gauge will automatically fall to its rest position        USING THE PINS  For keys with narrow blades the pins must be placed    between the bottom of the vise jaw and the back of the key   so that the key protrudes sufficiently out of the clamp and   therefore can be properly cut    If the key has a narrow blade and is also very thin  2 pins    must be used  see fig  14      Fig  14          14    Copyright ILCO UNICAN CORPORATION 2000    Operating manual   English ULTRACODE    4 3    Fig  15    CUTTING BY ELECTRIC CONTACT    The ULTRACODE key cutting machine is equipped with a low voltage electrical contact device which  permits the cutter to measure the key blank width as it approaches the cutter during the cutting phase  fig   15                        This exclusive feature permits the operator to secure the key to the most appropriate side of the 4 faced   vise jaw  A  B  C or D  therefore improving the grip on the key and eliminating the need for pins and or   adaptors    With the electrical contact feature  depth calibration is automatically calculated when the cutter touches the   keys profile during the cutting process    Electrical contact is guaranteed for keys in steel  brass  nickel silver  Zamak or iron  with or without nickel    plating     Improper use of electric contact         itis not recommended to cut ul
